ECOWEEK ...habits change ... climate change

ECOWEEK was created in 2005 with the passion to change people's habits ('habits change climate change' is our motto) and the mission to raise environmental awareness, and to engage the public in promoting the principles of social and environmental sustainability through design. ECOWEEK has developed programs in 17 countries and a network in 56 countries.



ECOWEEK
design workshops completed interventions and placemaking

in more than 30 cities,
and more than 200 sustainable design

workshops engaged more than 4500 students and professionals,

and hundreds of local stakeholders.


Through collaborative design process and design-build interventions and placemaking in public spaces and public institutions ECOWEEK innovates in environmentally and socially-conscious design and action.



ECOWEEK design workshops
empower students and young professionals

in transforming places and making a difference in local communities.


Starting in 2020, with COVID-19 restrictions on travel and social gathering, ECOWEEK has developed online programs, celebrating 15-years of activity with online and hybrid programs.
